Absolutely beautiful lamp however, when we put it together the lamp's pole was crooked so it canted to one side. The threads on the pole that screw into the base were poorly milled and stripped. I wanted to exchange it but my husband is handy, loves a challenge and was able to fix the problem although it took him quite a while. After all that we realized the base was not qiute level either so we needed to build one side up with a small amount of felt. Overall this lamp is even more gorgeous than pictured. It is very solid and weighty.The glass detailing is awesome. and everyone who see's it falls in love with it. I would definetely recommend this product feeling it a was likely a fluke it had some flaws.
